I have been using the French Brown translucent underglaze on rims as a sub for Manganese Wash, but without the running, but now it occurs to me that the dark brown engobe would also work for that, with a less translucent look. Yay, more options! Also, for those who like to make "sandy beach" themed plates and cups, the speckled engobe makes a beautiful beach area, while preserving the non-speckled clay for the "water" glazes.
Can you mix them? Like the speckle white and brown to get more of light speckled brown? And how do they do when you apply transfers on top? I use UG to cover an area (like a color canvas then add transfers on top
Can use it on leather hard clay I was not sure if I heard that. I fire in a wood kiln so you think they could be used in that situation. I have used may of your glazes in the wood kiln they work really well. I have had to change some things with how I glaze with them like change how many cotes I do my pieces
I love these, especially the black and brick red. My question is...when will the white be available for.purchase? I love the white base with the layering on the large bowl! ❤❤

Hi - I have the speckled buff and have tested it thoroughly on my clays. I would like to have it a bit darker, and would like to know if I can blend the speckled buff with a bit of dark brown or brick red to get a darker buff color.
when you made the test tiles with the opal lustre and microcerulean, did you 1) apply the engobe at greenware, then bisque to 04, then apply glaze OR 2) bisqued first, then applied engobe to bisque, then applied glaze?
I’m not sure I got this from he video - but I can apply this to leather hard clay, carve in my design, fire to ^04, then apply a glaze on the bisque and it shouldn’t affect the engobe in the ensuing ^6 firing?
Yes. They can be added in the greenware or bisque stages, and the glazes will not affect them, except possibly as mentioned in the demo adding the speckles to bisqueware and smearing them around too much with a wet brush, but in your application this would not come up.
Very high level of explanation of engobes and not enough info. It would be nice to know what engobe you used for the large bowl? Probably not willing to try it just from this video.
The engobe used at 9:25 is EG002 Speckled Buff Engobe. You can find the project details here: www.maycocolors.com/projects/opal-micro-engobe-nesting-bowl/

yes, they work on leatherhard clay!
@@MaycoColors Thank you so much. I love your products
what are the glazes on the big bowl?
She said it was a combo of all their new micro crystal glazes.
OMG, how do I get my hands on one of those T-Shirts! I only carry Maycon in my studio, such an AMAZING product!!!

Can I use this on the bottom of a pot like I would unglazed or slip?
Yes, it will not stick to the kiln shelf
I love these, especially the black and brick red. My question is...when will the white be available for.purchase? I love the white base with the layering on the large bowl! ❤❤
Can I layer the red over the white? Will it stay red or turn brown?
What is the glaze combo on the large bowl? Thanks!

we bisqued to 04 first then applied the colors.

@@lehacarpenter7773 thank you! One more question - would they work the same on porcelain?
@@nidan206 I believe so, but always test on a small tile before using on a big project.
How would these engobes work with soda firing at cone 10?
My question as well
Will these work on earthenware planters or pottery fired only to Cone 06?
They will not.
Can you use the engobes as you do a slip to apply transfers to leather hard clay pieces?
You can!
Do you offer a sample set of these?
They're in the 2024 stoneware kit
Can you mix the speckled buff with the brown to get a darker buff?
yes you can
If I apply the engobe to my already bisque piece can it goes straight to glaze fire?
Yes
@@MaycoColors thank you! Can I glaze over it in that state, or should I only apply glaze after bisque firing?
You can glaze over the engobe after it's been applied to a bisqued piece. You don't need to fire the engobe first.
I love your T shirt, where can I get some ??? many thanks.

Do you know how these engobes interact with your White Mudcrack glaze, at ^6 or ^10?
We have not tested this, but we would expect the mudcrack to perform normally.
Is the white a true white, like porcelain, rather than an off white like white stoneware?
yes! You can see a comparision of the white engobe vs white stoneware on our website: www.maycocolors.com/product/eg001-white-engobe/
@@MaycoColorssuper helpful😂 thanks❤
